wow that shit looks slippery. looks like a trail of ice from the previous tire tracks. kind of a disadvantage for the later drivers. it would be really icy and packed down. being the second car down the track after fresh snowfall would have the fastest time

@Bongwater123

theres plenty of tracks from everyones practice runs

[Ke7ch]

he's so smooth on the steering input; it looks like he's just out for a Sunday drive.

@hadabenz

How do you know ?

[MsFootballfan10]

Amazing footage! I wish I could drive like that in the snow. I can't wait to see what he does at XGames next week. Got a leg up on the rest of them for sure!

Ken block did a practice run on a course like this with no navigator and he wrecked so baaad, google the video and you will find it... its fucking awesome

[gear1152]

Very cool. I have a question about the notes that the co-driver is reading. Are they given to the team by the organizers or does the team drive the course and write their own notes?

[hadabenz]

@gear1152 All navigators are doing a survey prior to the day of event. They cruised the course at slow pace and took notes of every single obstacles and routing.

[papercut231719]

@gear1152 in Rally America, they're given to the teams by RA. It's actually illegal to write your own notes. They call the provided notes "Stage Notes", and when you take notes prior to the event, and note the speed at which you're to take corners, etc., they call it "Pace Notes". Hope that helps.

I've been to Sno* Drift many times, but I've never seen it that slick before. Crazy.

[markjmeyer7]

Awesome, I love watching full stages through like this. Excellent co-driving as well - the repeats and careful emphasis on important info are things I would need if I were a driver!

[Shakleford42]

Very interesting

[cszink]

When did he get the flat tire? I don't recall seeing a flat tire on his car...

[anthonyd5189]

10:40 in the video he says, 'We have a flat' and co-driver replies, 'Yeah I know!'

[eryknn022]

maybe at 10:33 ?!?!?! what you think?

[potato9990]

sweet!

[princedavid0]

My goodness what an awesome video!

[princedavid0]

He had a flat tire? That is just crazy!

[Humppakarajat]

a kingdom for spike tires! :-D

[Kippshizzle]

Spike tires would definitely help but you cannot use spike tires in Rally America because all of the cars have to be street legal

[Humppakarajat]

yeah, I know. That remembers me on a Simpsons episode where Homer is driving with snow chains on the wheels and a piano on the roof in summer on the main road of Springfield :D

I think that was the monorail episode
